[OSM-talk] Automatically generated changeset discussion comments by OSMCha

[Bryan Housel]

Yes, I agree the feature could be improved.

Helpful:
- "I think it should be more clear that clicking the button will add a changeset comment”
- “I think localization could be improved and I’d love to help with this”
- “I would like the opportunity to customize the message or see it before it is posted”

Unhelpful:
- “This feature is spam equivalent to “Bitcoin Millions" ”
- “I am posting this to the talk list instead of directly working with the developer to improve it”
- “I have not even bothered to figure out which GitHub repo to open an issue in"
- “To European eyes the comments look like they were written by a six-year-old”


Be nice everyone!

I did run across 2 that did not have review requested however - the message is occasionally being used instead of a dedicated thumbs up/down flag on changesets.
